Fourteen
years ago, John Stirling Walker, a student at the Unification Theological
Seminary, was brought into my territory of responsibility in connection
with a business enterprise designed to support the school. In the
course of our association, I came to see that John possessed a kind
of internal depth and intuition that surpassed our contemporaries
within the Unification Movement, including both the teachers and
the elders. His insight charted a perfect link between the substance
of life grounded within human relationships and that sacrificial
love ignited upon the earth through the presence and words of Jesus.
As such, it struck against any and all deviations from the "Re-Creation
of the True Family of Humankind" (Rev. Moon's teaching) promulgated
by even the most well-meaning within the movement. John's insight
seemed to provide a path, unlike any I had understood prior, for
moving the realm of the ideal into the domain of the ordinary. Though
he was misunderstood by many, and in effect isolated by the Unification
organization as a whole, he has maintained a steadfastness in his
pursuit of "True Family" upon this earth, expanding his
reach through touching simple men and women of various groups and
movements through his insight and intuition. All in all, he is paving
the way for a unification of thought that may at once both embrace
and elevate humanity by bringing each of us closer towards the fulfillment
of that universal aspiration for peace on earth, good will to all
men.
As of Epiphany of 2008, Mr. Raucci has distanced himself from the purposes of the Institute for Hypostatic Science and the Brotherhood Project, primarily in connection with his confessed inability to comprehend John Stirling Walker's assertion that encounters among men that involve a sexual element do not in and of themselves by their nature exclude God, and that, indeed, God may work in them directly. |
